The first house in Saratoga had a big palm tree in the back yard and was very sunny. The next house in Campbell had lots of fruit trees: orange, lemon, grapefruit, Meyer lemons, and cherries. That was CEO's favourite house and mom liked the kitchen. Then we went to the dirtiest house we've ever seen in Sunnyvale. He was so grossed out, dad wouldn't even go upstairs. Then we went to Los Gatos to see a house dad looked at the day before with the relocation team. We were lucky to run into the landlords who let us take a look, showed us the school across the street and gave us an application. The application took awhile so we missed the next open house in Willow Glen. That house looked like a blue gingerbread house.
Dad filled out 3 applications. We got accepted at the fruit tree house and the Los Gatos cottage. I think you can tell from the name of our blog which house we chose. You got it! Poppy Cottage. Here's a video tour of our house. My favourite things are the trees: the huge oak tree to climb, the apple trees in the back and the Redwoods guarding on either side. CEO and I really like to play in the yard with all the rocks - it's our workshop.
The movers will be here in 2 days with our furniture and our deck is under construction right now to fix some rotten wood dad found. I'll share some pictures once we have our stuff set-up.
Enjoy and hope to hear from you soon.
